I took 304th out of 15,550 people in the country's 4th largest 10k road race, the Bellin Run in Green Bay. I first signed up on Thursday so I was put in a later starting 'wave' which resulted in me avoiding people for the entire 6.21 miles. I wasted a ton of energy doing that. Had I started in a faster wave (I could have been in the fastst wave) I'm sure my time 41:46 and place would have been better.

Some errands (wrong size washers bought from hardware store, as I was looking for the size of the washer itself, not the hole; donated magazines to local library; mailed off a SW package). Tried to go to the newly-opened Sonic in town (the line TO GET INTO THEIR PARKING LOT started at the nearby hotel where the employee was taking orders ) but settled for Chik Fil-A. Watched the US kiss its sister in World Cup match. Read Allies SW novel (so-so book). Enjoyed the cool cloudy weather instead of the warmer temps predicted (no such luck today it appears).

I spent the day working, getting yelled at by a customer for something I had zero control over, then her promptly saying "I wasn't being rude" After that, went to Lowes and picked up new lawnmower blades, with a quick stop at QT for gas and a 69 cent blue raspberry icee/slurpee. Got on the net and vegged once I got home, not a very exciting day.

Treat your stepmother with respect Pantera, or you'll be sleeping in the streets!!

Yeah, I'm not much of a runner so we walked it...I LOVE walking and can go for miles and miles and miles...when it comes to running, 2 miles is my limit since I don't enjoy it.

Congratulations to you both! May all your years be filled with happiness!

Not to speak for them (but I will anways) they had a great time, everything went awesome! The reception was at a very nice place w/ great food. Mrs. 2-1B looked lovely and Mr. 2-1B was quite dapper as well. I don't want to say too much here and steal his thunder so I'll let him handle any further details.
